As one of the longest-running production models in history, the strength of the Tele guitar lies in its inherent simplicity. It's been modified only slightly since its inception.
The '52 integrates a premium ash body with a one-piece U shape maple neck and a 7.25 inche radius fingerboard. It features two American Vintage Tele single-coil pickups, the original Tele circuit with its three-position switch, brass bridge saddles, an ashtray cover (vintage six-saddle bridge and modern wiring kit included as an accessory), a single-ply black pickguard, master volume and master tone, and chrome hardware.

The Original Fender Electric Guitar AMAZING
Quality
Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
Top-notch quality, everything on the guitar is just highest quality.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
I've only had it for a few weeks, but Fender put lots of love and care into this guitar and it shows.
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
WOW! What can I say about this guitar that convey the quality and workmanship on it? I have about 15 guitars and this blows everything else out of the water. It's that good. I had an American Deluxe before and it was a dog, especially compared to this one. I should've bought this a long time ago. It's light in weight (about 6 lbs), love the butterscotch blonde nitro finish on a premium ash body, really digging the original 7.5 radius (?) on the neck, it's just about perfect. The tone, I left the wiring stock, is soul-ful and twangy, it's just lovely. The best guitar, who needs Custom Shop?
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
It just feels perfect, I could play this thing from dawn to dusk, if I had the time.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
It's a telecaster, so it's bright; I love the vintage wiring, it's got everything, bright and dark, but so smooth.
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
Perfect paint/finish on the guitar, love the nitro smell.
Action
How was the action out of the box?
Perfect, out of the box, I only needed to tune the strings.
